A Lucky 15 is a popular bet in the world of horse racing, largely because it can generate huge returns from a relatively small stake, but many more inexperienced punters are not familiar with how the bet works.


What is a Lucky 15 bet?

As the name suggests, a Lucky 15 consists of 15 separate bets across four selections, although you can also back them each way to make a total of 30 separate bets. These bets are:

  • Four singles
  • Six doubles
  • Four trebles
  • One four-fold

This means that even if only a couple of your selections land you’re likely to make a profit, depending on the odds of your winning legs, and a single winner still guarantees you some return.

For example, if you back four horses at 2/1 with a £1 stake on each bet (£15 total stake) you would win £265.5 if all four selections win, but even if only two of them win you would still get your stake back in winnings.

  1. Ensure all the selections are correct in the betslip
  2. Once the selections are added to your betslip, click the “Show more multiples” option on the betslip.
  3. Scroll down to Lucky 15 and input the stake and whether you want it to be an eachway bet or not.
  4. Remember that your stake is multiplied by 15 (or 30 in the case of eachway bets).
  5. Place your bet
